Options for Breaking Your Lease
Negotiate with Landlord
Many landlords prefer negotiation over legal action. Offer to help find a replacement tenant or pay a reduced fee.
Find a Subletter
If your lease allows, find someone to take over your lease. This can eliminate your liability entirely.
Help Re-Rent the Unit
Assist your landlord in finding a new tenant. This reduces vacancy time and your total liability.
Document Everything
Keep records of all communication, efforts to mitigate, and the condition of the unit when you leave.
Important: Breaking a lease can affect your rental history and credit. Always try to work with your landlord for a mutually agreeable solution. This calculator provides estimates only - actual costs depend on your specific lease terms and local laws.
